The Lampas tile is effortlessly elegant, it reminds us of a luxury Fired Earth design. In an elongated metro-tile shape, with an imperfect hand finish, the tiles are simple but stylish. The reactive gloss glaze means it appears Matt or Gloss, depending on the light.

Harriet goes on to explain, 'It’s very much about making a nurturing and inviting atmosphere in the home. This teal tile will create an alluring palette to complement any room. Especially when paired with touches of nature, such as wood grain or natural stone.'
